Sydney, August 25, 2023 - BrainChip Holdings Ltd ("BrainChip" or the "Company") (ASX: BRN, OTCQX: BRCHF, ADR: BCHPY), the world's first commercial producer of ultra-low power neuromorphic AI IP, has announced the issuance of a new Australian patent that reinforces its position as a leader in the field. The patent, AU 2022203607, was granted on August 24, 2023, by IP Australia.
Benefits of the Patent:
The newly granted patent, titled "Event-Based Extraction of Features in a Convolutional Spiking Neural Network," significantly enhances BrainChip's portfolio, which now comprises 18 issued patents. The company considers this patent to be a valuable asset that will give it a competitive edge by preventing rivals from efficiently performing transposed and dilated convolutions in a neural network.
The key features protected by the patent include:
The patent safeguards event-based transposed and dilated convolution techniques on digital input data converted into events. This approach reduces computational requirements and power consumption compared to non-event-based convolutions.
Advanced edge applications can be implemented using fewer event-based neuron circuits, thanks to the patented technology.
